Claude Code: deny. ### `delete_job` - The name "delete_job" says "delete": a word for removing or ending something. - The description says "Cannot be undone". - The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true). Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Delete the uploaded file, the transcript and all other results of a job right away, instead of 24 hours after the last activity. Cannot be undone. ``` ## Can't be undone (2) Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask. ### `pay_job` - The name "pay_job" says "pay": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Pay for the full transcript of a job whose get_job status is "payment_required", with a card your user shared through a Stripe Shared Payment Token (MPP). Call without payment: you get a payment challenge with the exact price in EUR. Your MPP client pays it and calls again. Without an MPP wallet, show payment_url from get_job to your user instead. ``` ### `send_feedback` - The name "send_feedback" says "send": a word for sending, and what is sent cannot be taken back. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Tell the convert.express team about a bug, a missing feature, or a question — from you or your user. A human reads every message; there is no automatic reply. Include reply_email only if your user wants an answer. ``` ## Changes things (7) Creates or changes something that can be changed back. Claude Code: ask. ### `create_share_link` - The name "create_share_link" says "create": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text A public web page with the results of a completed job, for your user to open or send to others. Anyone with the link can see it until the job expires. ``` ### `create_upload` - The name "create_upload" says "create": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text For a file on your machine: returns an upload_url. PUT the file to it, then call start_transcription. If your user attached or named a file, try the PUT first. Only if the PUT fails (no HTTP access, or it is blocked), show the returned upload_page_url to your user instead: they upload the file in a browser and it starts by itself. ``` ### `estimate_cost` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. - The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Price for transcribing a recording of a given length, and how many free minutes are left today — for your IP, or for your user's account once your robot_key is linked. ``` ### `request_summary` - The name "request_summary" says "request": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Ask for an AI summary or action items of a completed job. Returns at once; the result appears in get_job ("summary" / "action_items"). ``` ### `start_transcription` - The name "start_transcription" says "start": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Call after the PUT to upload_url has finished. Checks the file arrived and queues it. ``` ### `transcribe_url` - The description's first verb is "start": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Start transcribing a media file from a public link (direct file link or YouTube). Returns job_id and robot_key; then poll get_job. ``` ### `translate` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Translate the transcript, subtitles (timecodes kept), summary or action items of a completed job into another language. Returns at once; the result appears in get_job under "translations". ``` ## Only reads (3) Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow. ### `get_job` - The name "get_job" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Status of a job. When status is "completed", returns the transcript text in the chosen format plus download links. When status is "payment_required", returns a preview and a payment_url to show your user. Also returns summary, action_items and translations when requested. ``` ### `get_service_info` - The name "get_service_info" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text What convert.express does, how to use these tools, free minutes, prices, models, languages and limits. ``` ### `list_jobs` - The name "list_jobs" says "list": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Your jobs that still exist (jobs are deleted 24 hours after the last activity), newest first, with their status. ``` ## Claude Code permissions For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `transcribe`: ```json { "permissions": { "allow": [ "mcp__transcribe__get_service_info", "mcp__transcribe__get_job", "mcp__transcribe__list_jobs" ], "ask": [ "mcp__transcribe__estimate_cost", "mcp__transcribe__transcribe_url", "mcp__transcribe__create_upload", "mcp__transcribe__start_transcription", "mcp__transcribe__pay_job", "mcp__transcribe__create_share_link", "mcp__transcribe__request_summary", "mcp__transcribe__translate", "mcp__transcribe__send_feedback" ], "deny": [ "mcp__transcribe__delete_job" ] } } ```
